Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to the last reported sale two weeks ago, steers and heifers sold 20.00-30.00 lower. Supply and demand were moderate. It's been all negative news for the last month or better for the cattle market and the President's remarks last Friday have sent cattle futures lower and rattled confidence in the market. Also, corn has shot higher adding to the pressure on calves and feeders. Several un-weaned calves are starting to show up. Slaughter cows sold 10.00-20.00 lower than two weeks ago.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $447.60, low $357.18, median $413.34 across 25 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.

Slaughter cattle

By class and quality grade · $/cwt

Cull cows and bulls are graded, not weight-classed — grade is what moves the money here.
